goby like fish. it walks the substrate on it's pectoral fins. about 2 inches in length with a lateral mouth. it is goldish yellow in color with spots or mottling in a brown shade. about 2-3 inches in length. translucent. body is long and slender.

I'd get a pic, but it will have to wait til tomorrow when my camera is charged.

EDIT:

horrible cell phone pic

There is only one species of freshwater goby that I know of...the Rhinogobius sp.

So, my guess is the R. duospilus.

Looks like some species of darter, but impossible to tell which one w/out clear pics.
